[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] OrionTC:
Im one of the users with the I9000XXJF3 firmware and currently i can't find a backup for this. i see JF1 JF2 and JF7 on that site.

i know im not alone with this and a few people have asked if its possible to create a backup of their firmware but as far as i know none of the threads have been fully answered.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] lenrek:
If I read the version correctly, according to the description found here.

You are using:

I9000XXJF3

XX - Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom

J - 2010

F - June

3 - Version 3

So, the I9000XXJF7 should be the latest official firmware version for your phone.

I forgot...

Why not try the suggestion here:

[TUT] How To Create DUMP out of Stock Rom

EDIT: Did not read the content of the thread, after read it, maybe is not what you are looking for. :p
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] OrionTC:
Hmm, im just a little cautious, call me paranoid but surely official firmwares would be released via OTA/samsung website/Kias(whatever its called).

and yes i posted in that thread hoping it was what i was looking for but no :( lol.

i do agree with you that I9000XXJF7 is "my" latest firmware, but i dont think its officially from samsung.

id be happy if someone can prove me wrong so i can finally flash to JG5
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] stockfeed:
the samsung-firmwares.com site is not an official one, but everyone gets their FW's from there. just flash a custom rom and you should be fine.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trancelated:
thanks for the prompt reply. but I dont want to do any damage to my phone; and I dont have a memory card yet :/

I dont want to root my phone (as its brand new) and I dont know what effect does it do on warranty and stuff.

my exact problem and my thoughts :o

mine is the same too :)

so I have to root the phone to make it faster.

this doesnt answer why the phone is slow in the first place? I have read about NAND and stuff which I dont understand. what do they mean? Can someone explain in plain english?

thanks :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] navmanyeah:
It's slow because for some reason, the Galaxy doesn't auto kill apps once the memory reaches low levels. So you can do two things. Install the autokiller app which should keep enough memory free for smooth operation, or you can install advanced task killer app, and kill all the apps yourself once the phone feels sluggish.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] olus:
hi,

are you have a task killer like app installed ?

all apps running in background when you start them onetime..with task killer you can close all. i have 170mb ram..

after few hours of playing with my sgs its slowing down, then i look in task killer just 40mb ram.

when i kill all apps i have again 170mb and anything is fine ;-))

test it..

or check fastreboot its faster then a softreset with the power button

sorry for my bad english guys
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trancelated:
:confused:

I have tried the autokiller app but it stopped me from using it because it said it could harm my phone.

also what kind of idiotic developer wouldnt put a proper memory management module in it?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Morghus:
I would love to root the phone and muck with it if I could only be assured I wouldn't lose my warranty. Until someone tells me all is good, all I can do is nail apps as best I can.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dakine:
Will a factory reset undo the root? If so rooting and autokiller is a no brainer.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dupel:
If such a statement stops you, than you really shouldn't touch any setting on the phone =) Or buy IPhone.

Its protection against idiots :D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] sammy555:
lol bit harsh but true.If you really do want to be cautious just wait for the official firmware update from samsung-it will be fixed(has been fixed already in jg5).It looks like samsung wanted to get the phone to market as quick as possible so firmware suffered.Judging by sales it looks like they made a good choice from a business point of view
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trancelated:
<insert thread title here> ... an object of ridicule..

ive tried autokiller and advanced task manager, autokiller made my phone even sluggish.

still have the phone in stock condition.

--

this happened to me like 5-6 times till now.

Mate: "oh you got a new mobile?"

Me: "yeah"

*shows him*

Mate: "oh you got the new iPhone?, thats cool!"

Me: :/

*facepalm*

I cant even show them my phone because people think it of as it looks like iPhone is a clone of iPhone.

and when I try to show them, my phone becomes hell lot of slow, and I get to hear things like "i got a crap phone" and "nokia 3310 is faster than yours" and stuff :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] makamiso:
Lag fix time maybe? Its super easy to do and makes massive difference.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] steffe.jst:
Think you need to stop caring what people think :p

Nah, I admit, it's nice showing off your phone's though. Not sure what kind of friends you have, but I've found the ability to actually do whatever I want with my phone has left most iPhone friends annoyed and somewhat jealous. Something simple as transfering regular files to your phone could be enough ;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Roy Ngan:
try apply one click lag fix. it works for me and many other SGS user

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] FadeFx:
people, dont belive all those taskkiller ****, there is no need for a taskkiller in android actually, since the os cares of this pretty well. there is no need to have free ram (more than 5 mb), apps running as sleeping wont need any resources and they are killed by the os instantly as soon as the ram will be needed. they are actually still in memory to open them faster in case you need them again.

now to the lagging, your phone lags because samsung managed to **** the good hardware up with software again, they run the /data partition on their own proprietary filesystem rfs which turns out to be sluggish and slows down all operations in the databases stored there. however this is already knowen and a workaround is done which needs you to root the phone.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=749495

to get a backup of your firmware version you have the option to use nandroid out of clockwork recovery, which is a update.zip you run from normal recovery that loads the clockwork recovery into memory, so it does not make any change to your actual firmware.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=734166

please read the linked threads well before you do anything, to understand exactly what you are doing....

edit: i´d suggest to wait with the lagfix maybe one day from now, RyanZA is coming up with the final release version which should work eaven more faster, and uses all the 2gig instead of 1gig atm...
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] steffe.jst:
You're half right. Android is supposed to manage the memory by itself entirely. It does this using values that are alterable with AutoKiller. Problem with Galaxy S is that these values are very low (around 28ish). Increasnig them to strict (60-80 or something) helps a great deal, hell the step below might even be enough.

That 5mb ram is enough isn't quite true. I'm not saying having 200mb free ram isn't wasted RAM, but a good rule of thumb I've personally picked up is ~70-80mb free. This allows the phone to start applications or generally do anything without having to free up RAM every time.

T'is true that the RFS system is far from optimal, but just because it's a major reason of the lags doesn't make it the entire reason. There's also been some discussions going on at modaco's forum where someone changed somethnig with the file systems to be anticipatory - I don't remember the details - which also seemed to show a fairly decent boost in performance.

Point is, lag fixes are coming or are available already. Either you wait for samsung to release official fixes or use the already fine tuned, or soon to be, lag fix hacks.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] trancelated:
the screen clarity and brightness usually does the trick to me, if it doesn't, the live wallpaper certainly would :p

ok, I need some help with jargon now.

Whats:

nandroid

Clockwork Recovery

-----

apart from the above I need to clarify a few things.

from what I can gather, root involves in creating a hack in the OS which allows the user to take control of other features of the OS.

so does root involve in upgrading or degrading the OS?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] robert_tlse:
Yup, JF3 was lagging here too, simple task killers didn't help alot.

Just upgrading to JG5 almost completely resolved the lag. And adding a touch of autokiller (optimum is enough here) basicly removed it completely ..no need for any fancy lag fixes here.

However if anyone doesn't want to root/flash their phone (which i admit can be kinda scary), just wait till the end of next month when the official samsung upgrade comes along. In the meantime try something like Advanced Task Manager ...1 month to go ;)

..also i think it's much wiser for samsung to do their upgrade in a month. Ok they have to adapt their touchwiz & stuff (not that i care, launcher pro rocks), but it gives them time to see what kind of quirks other handset makers run into with the current froyo deployment, and should guarantee us a smoother experience in the long-run :)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] #Winning#:
Hey guys I finally got my replacement Evo from Sprint. Fortunately I got a phone that has 1.32 on it. I was just wondering with that in mind which Root method you guys think that I should use. I would like to be able to have the latest versions of everything including my PRI. I rooted and had to unroot my old Evo and even after unrooting my PRI was stuck at 1.34 when I had to send back.. Any way to prevent this?

Thanks in advance.

As some of you know, MR4 is set to roll out in stages starting today (July 16th) and is said to have many updates. Here is a list: Click

Does anyone know if this maintenance release will fix the "Silent Call" bug?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrainfartEris:
Looks as if that pdf is incorrect. The way that is describing its 2.1. I think Verizon forgot to update that particular pdf.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shadow.Wolf:
MR4 update is not Froyo. It should however fix the silent call bug on the device. I care not anymore as I have root, but it is still indeed going to be 2.1. I don't think the Eris is capable of having Froyo with HTC sense uploaded into the device. It might be too much for it, and that's ASSUMING that VZW will get the update sent out correctly this time.

Shadow
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nikolai2.1:
Just root and get KaosFroyo!:p
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dEris:
I already know it isn't 2.2. I was just asking if it would fix the particular bug I was talking about...

I actually called customer service and they told me it was rolling out on July 16th and my device would get it within 7 days. I didn't think I would get it 10 minutes after getting off the phone with her! I am now on MR4. Only time will tell to see if this "Silent Call" bug is fixed.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copestag:
its kind of impossible for anyone to answer your question since youre the first report of someone receiving the update that Ive read ........ so how would anyone know?

of course the only way someone will know is for a person who likes to come to forums and ask alot of questions about will this do this or this do that to actually capture the link when they do the d/l so that the devs can pick it apart

this way instead of just asking questions that are impossible to answer..... the person might actually provide the information to make receiving an answer possible

just my 2 cents early morning rant

I was just wondering if anyone who has gotten this has tested the root methods to make sure they still work, or if Verizon has patched them.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
This has happened to me twice already in 1 month.

1. SMS sent by my wife showed up in thread of another person in the messaging client. However, when I click the SMS bubble to go into the SMS, it shows on the top bar that it's sent by my wife.

2. I received an SMS from Mr X, so went into the conversation thread of Mr X to reply him. The SMS however, was sent to Mr Y! When I checked, the SMS sent was reflected in the thread of Mr X, but when I click on the SMS bubble to go in, it shows that it's sent to Mr Y. What is worse is when I exit the thread, it shows that it is Mr X's conversation thread, but when I go in, it becomes Mr Y's, with all conversations between X and Y in that thread! BTW, X and Y have 2 very different mobile nos.

Now I am very scared to send SMS, not knowing if it will get sent to somebody else! Anyone encountered this? Any remedy?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] OrionTC:
i had something weird like this and put it down to me being silly clicking the wrong thing.

I also notice that when i send a sms to "hannah" sometimes the name "helen" is shown at the notification bar which of course ****s me up considering some of the conversations i have!

can't quite put my finger on whats going on to give a full explanation but i noticed something odd too...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Sounds scary.

Do you guys get any feedback from the phone that the message was sent successfully? I don't, and find that troubling.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] OrionTC:
in the conversation window as soon as i click send the sms content turns into a "sending...." then once sent displays the sms content again. on a unsuccessful sms the phone notifies you and the sms colour turns grey.

maybe try dropping your signal somehow, flight mode or something and try sending a sms and see if it notifies you on a unsuccessful sms.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Would be nice if there is an audio feedback, but your suggestion is good.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] OrionTC:
you could play around with the delivery reports in the SMS options menu, i believe they are carrier related though?

my phone does vibrate when i recieve a failed sent sms message though, maybe this could be customised with a notification ringtone. i currently have it on silent since i get like 30 twitters an hour.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Seifer1975:
On my phone, if a message is sent successfully, the date and timestamp will appear on the lower right of the sms bubble. If it's not successful, the bubble is grey and both the sms notification ringtone will play and notification appear in the notification bar
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
That's what I thought too when I had that option on, but it does not notify me.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] FtL1776:
Upgrade to JG3, it was a problem in JG1.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Strange, I don't hear the ringtone or the notification.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
it's just a software glitch, i've had this problem with some 3rd party SMS software in my windows phone, so reverted to the stock SMS software, however in SGS it seems ok so far.

there is a 3rd party SMS apps for SGS "ChompSMS" check it out, it might solve the problem the few of you are experiencing
[Galaxy S I9000 General] oswade:
No problems here, 250~ SMS already sent this month.

[Droid Incredible General] pflatlyne:
Its up and running now and Clear shows the coverage areas. The problem is,they are dead wrong. The dark green coverage areas work great,but the lighter green areas don't work at all,period. You get a few good spots and it drops off in a few blocks. Whats more,it wont fail over to 3g reliably so if your using anything streaming it wont play as it switches and you have to reload a webpage if your loading it when you switch to 3g. The speeds are great,when it works,but it works so badly that its pretty much unusable,unless you happen to be rooted in one of the small areas with good coverage. The sad thing is,the small areas are all over the place,but not connected. Ive found them up past Ogden and around Weber county as well as all over SLC. I sure hope it gets better because if this is as good as it gets,I'm not impressed.

Just reset your phone, by either using the button under the back, or hold down the power button in Android.

It's not really installed, more like running on top of windows. Only difference is, you can't close it and get back into windows, you have to restart the device.

[Vibrant General] mafaesto:
I currently have the N1, and I feel that the vibrant may end up being a better phone in the long run, even if there's small things missing from it. I want a phone that would be good with gaming and the Vibrant seems to be that phone.

Basically if you have owned an N1 please let me know if you're satisfied with the Vibrant. What makes it better, if not, again reasons why. I'm very curious.
[Vibrant General] iunlock:
Coming from a former N1 user, I think you'll definitely enjoy the Vibrant a lot more. It's just something about the phone...it's powerful, fast, sleek design, perfect screen size, 16GB built in memory and the AMOLED screen is best in class hands down.

The two fastest phones available for processing / gaming is the Galaxy S (Vibrant) and the iPhone 4 which uses the same Samsung CPU made in Korea.

Here is a GPU comparison for some of the leading smartphones:

* Motorola Droid: TI OMAP3430 with PowerVR SGX530 = 7 million triangles/sec

* Nexus One: Qualcomm QSD8×50 with Adreno 200 = 22 million triangles/sec

* iPhone 3G S: 600 MHz Cortex-A8 with PowerVR SGX535 = 28 million triangles/sec

* Samsung Galaxy S: S5PC110 with PowerVR SGX540 = 90 million triangles/sec

And for comparison a few consoles:

* PS3: 250 million triangles/sec

* Xbox 360: 500 million triangles/sec

I think the biggest advantage of our phone is the AMOLED screen. There's nothing like it. Check this out:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6mAgHO1_8c

There are a lot of reasons of "why the Samsung Vibrant..."

You'll like it.
[Vibrant General] temperbad:
I'm a old n1 user for 6 months, although I miss froyo and the trackball alerts and flash, the vibrant is all around better. Its smoother, more sensitive awesome screen, amoled is beautiful and the gpu is amazing, its already been rooted so just wait, there will be some bad ass ****...:)
